A Quotation from "John of the Mountains"

Here is a quotation from Scottish-born American naturalist John Muir (1838-1914).

This grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never dried at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal sunset, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls.

John Muir c. 1902
